[Intro]

Loaded like a freight train

Flyin' like an aeroplane

Feelin' like a space brain

One more time tonight, look out!


[Verse 1]

Well, I'm a west coast struttin', one bad mother

Got a rattlesnake suitcase under my arm

Said I'm a mean machine, been drinkin' gasoline

And, honey, you can make my motor hum

Well, I got one chance left in a nine-live cat

I got a, a dog-eat-dog sly smile

I got a Molotov cocktail with a match to go

I smoke my cigarette with style

And I can tell you, honey

You can make my money tonight, rah!


[Verse 2]

Wake up late, honey, put on your clothes

And take your credit card to the liquor store

Well, that's one for you and two for me by tonight


[Pre-Chorus]

I'll be loaded like a freight train

Flyin' like an aeroplane

Feelin' like a space brain

One more time tonight


[Chorus]

I'm on the nightrain, bottoms up

I'm on the nightrain, fill my cup

I'm on the nightrain, ready to crash and burn

I never learn

I'm on the nightrain, I love that stuff

I'm on the nightrain, and I can never get enough

I'm on the nightrain, never to return, no


[Guitar Solo]


[Pre-Chorus]

Loaded like a freight train

Flyin' like an aeroplane

Speedin' like a space brain

One more time tonight


[Chorus]

I'm on the nightrain, and I'm lookin' for some

I'm on the nightrain, so I can leave this slum

I'm on the nightrain, and I'm ready to crash and burn

Nightrain, bottoms up

I'm on the nightrain, fill my cup

I'm on the nightrain, ah, ah, ah, ah, woah, yeah

I'm on the nightrain, love that stuff

Oh, I'm on the nightrain, and I can never get enough

Ridin' the nightrain, I guess, I

I guess, I guess, I guess I never learn

On the nightrain, float me home

Oh, I'm on the nightrain

Ridin' the nightrain, never to return

Nightrain
